Symantec™ System Recovery 2013 R2
The gold standard in disaster recovery.
Data Sheet: Backup and Disaster Recovery
Overview
Symantec™ System Recovery 2013 R2 delivers superior
backup and disaster recovery for servers, desktops, and
laptops with a single unified solution that enables businesses
to recover from downtime or disasters in minutes. With
patented Restore Anyware™ technology, IT administrators can
rapidly restore exactly what they need, when and where they
need it–including entire physical and virtual machines to bare
metal or dissimilar hardware as well as files, folders, and
granular application objects. Unlike other technologies,
Symantec System Recovery also provides cross-platform
Physical-to-Virtual (P2V), Virtual-to-Virtual (V2V), and Virtual-
to-Physical (V2P) recoveries, making it the perfect
complement to physical and virtual environments.
"With Symantec System Recovery,
recovering a server is a slam dunk.
Before, recovery took us as many as
eight hours. Now we can recover a
server very quickly in as little as 30
minutes."
